False Agave is a striking succulent ideal for Florida landscapes, thriving in USDA zones 9b to 11. It prefers well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade, making it drought-tolerant and low-maintenance. Typically reaching 3 to 5 feet in height and width, it adds architectural interest with its spiky, blue-green leaves. Perfect for xeriscaping, it supports water conservation efforts while enhancing garden aesthetics. Fun fact: despite its name, False Agave is not a true agave but shares similar growth habits. Regular pruning of old leaves helps maintain its shape and health.
